On the Rosebud we even had an Indian guide. Nothing was mentioned, (all 4 of us were carrying open). There are too many rattle snakes to worry about. I will keep this in mind if I ever hunt there again.
Not a problem on the Rosebud Reservation - see post #13. Call ahead to confirm just to be safe. We did see one rattlesnake on the reservation - just before we ran over it. It was sunning itself on the crest of a hill and we couldn't avoid it.
